In today’s episode, the tension within the household escalates as Rahi approaches Prem with a request to prepare juice for everyone. She notes that no one had breakfast due to Anupama’s recent actions, which she perceives as disruptive. Prem, sensing Rahi’s animosity, asks her why she is so against Anupama. Rahi vehemently responds that Anupama is always in the wrong and consistently goes against the interests of the family. Prem, however, defends Anupama, stating that it seems suspicious that the Kotharis are hiding information about Pankhuri. This prompts Rahi to question why Prem would not trust Vasundhara and her own intentions. Ultimately, Prem decides to stand by Anupama, while Rahi resolves to support Parag and Vasundhara, creating a clear divide in loyalties.
Meanwhile, Anupama is mentally preparing herself for yet another confrontation. She is stopped by Anil, who expresses that he has been waiting for her to calm down so they can talk. Anil’s demeanor suggests he has significant information to share. In another part of the house, Gautam reflects on the mounting complications, noting that with Prem, Rahi, Aryan, and now Pankhuri involved, the situation is becoming increasingly chaotic. Aryan, ever the provocateur, taunts Gautam, insinuating that he is feeling insecure as his importance in the household diminishes. He sarcastically suggests that Gautam should consider returning to Rajasthan if he feels threatened. Gautam, unfazed, advises Aryan to choose his alliances wisely if he wants to survive the unfolding drama.
Anil finally speaks with Anupama, revealing that Parag was completely unaware of Pankhuri’s plans and that he and Vasundhara had been complicit in supporting her schemes. He confesses that he has lived with guilt over their actions and describes Pankhuri as a spoiled brat who manipulated them. Anil makes a heartfelt request for Anupama to persuade Raghav to withdraw his case, expressing a desire to make amends. Anupama, however, is concerned about Raghav’s future, prompting Anil to promise financial support for him. Anupama, feeling a moral obligation, accuses Anil and Vasundhara of committing a grave injustice by falsely implicating Raghav. Anil warns her that if she chooses to support Raghav, Rahi could face serious repercussions as a result.
Meanwhile, Vasundhara is consumed by fear, worrying that if Parag learns the truth about their involvement, he will be devastated. Parag, however, reassures her that he will bring Pankhuri back home. Vasundhara urges him to stop searching for Pankhuri, especially since Raghav has reopened the case against them. Parag, determined, insists that they will find a way to resolve the situation. In a moment of frustration, Vasundhara vents her anger towards Rahi, blaming Anupama for treating Rahi poorly and for disrupting the family dynamic. Rahi, overhearing this, becomes furious with Anupama, feeling unjustly targeted.
Anupama finds herself caught in a moral dilemma, torn between supporting Raghav and protecting Rahi. She confides in Hasmuk about the complicated truths surrounding Raghav and Pankhuri. Hasmuk offers sage advice, urging Anupama to convince Raghav to move on with his life, warning her that her defense of Raghav might lead to a permanent rift with Rahi. He encourages her to carefully reconsider her choices, highlighting the emotional stakes involved.
In the household, Rahi is seen fixing a family photo frame, a symbolic gesture that underscores her desire for unity despite the turmoil. Prem attempts to engage Rahi in conversation, but she pointedly ignores him, reflecting her inner turmoil and resentment. Meanwhile, Parag decides to take action by meeting Pankhuri, and Khyati insists on accompanying him. Parag expresses his fear that Pankhuri may not recognize him, while Khyati wonders aloud if Raghav’s suspicions about Pankhuri were justified all along. Parag stands firm, asserting that he trusted Pankhuri over Raghav. Meanwhile, Gautam is anxious, fearing that if Prarthana reveals the truth about him, it could jeopardize everything. Parag instructs Khyati to speak with Anupama and persuade her to see things from their perspective.
Elsewhere, Meeta begins to doubt whether Vasundhara and Parag had truly trapped Raghav, raising questions that could unravel their carefully constructed facade. Anil, feeling the weight of the situation, grows increasingly frustrated, while Vasundhara urges him to maintain silence about their actions. Anil contemplates whether he should reveal the truth to Anupama, recognizing that withholding information could have dire consequences.
Later, Rahi confronts Raghav, her anger boiling over as she demands that he stay away from Anupama and her family. The confrontation underscores the deepening divisions within the family and sets the stage for further conflict.
In the precap, Vasundhara assigns Gautam the crucial responsibility of safeguarding their secret. In a shocking turn, Gautam presents a video that shows Kinjal stealing from the office. He uses this information as leverage, threatening the Shah family and insisting that they must convince Anupama to stop supporting Raghav if they wish to protect Kinjal and keep their family intact. The stakes are raised, and the tension within the household reaches a boiling point.
